Famesick
Lena Dunham you are a voice of a generation. Wow. Unlike her last book, which was more a collection of essays, Famesick talks about her sudden rise to fame with the success of Girls and the years that follow. Lots on the relationships closest to her (including Jack Antonoff) and her ongoing health struggles.
When telling people I’m reading this, many people still have an ‘ew’ reaction to her in general…if that’s you maybe examine why!

Famesick: A Memoir
Lily
“I almost never listen to my books but come on. A memoir. By Lena Dunham. Read in her actual own voice? It’s a no brainer. With all these years of retrospect I am firmly convinced that she is the voice of her/my generation. It’s all that much more magical that she wrote that line before we really knew how true it would be. Also, I listened to this while walking around Paris on a springtime solo vac”
Good Thing Going by Lena Dunham
“A Famesick velvet Mary Jane (fortune favors the bold, since hot pink piping knocks 40 euros off.)”

“this book has me all the way fucked up and somehow looking at my sick/drug using mother with a softer gaze than i have in decades. i’m so grateful that lena has been here to reflect so many experiences through my shithead twenties and into my migraineur late 30s. side note… get your audiobooks from libro.fm cause they aren’t evil and you’re buying your books from real stores. fuck audible!”
